[Verse 1]
EWait, when am I gonna C#mlose you?
How will I let you sG#mlip through?

ETrace the curving on the cC#moastline
The Santa Lucia clG#miffside
We'll D#mstay here for the Bnight

BEverything has its place
ENow I lie in our bed
BWondering how to explain

[Verse 2]
E
ETake another one if you C#mneed it
Or do you already fG#meel it?
I fD#melt it from the G#mstart
A Egray silhouette of you C#mdancing
A shadow play that we're G#mcast in
D#mOn the cabin Bwalls
[Pre-Chorus 2]
EYou were floating to me
BIn a slow motion fade
ECould I finally see
BBetween belief and faith?
[Chorus]
EYou

[Bridge]
E B E B
EI remember you closing the shutters
And Blaying down by my side
EAnd the light that was still slipping through
It was Bpainting your body in stripes
EI remember the trees summoned down
Like an aBrchangel choir
EAnd the ocean was all we could see
And I Bknew that I wanted you
EI remember you closing the shutters
And G#mlaying down Bby my side
C#mAnd the light that was still slipping through
It was G#mpainting your Bbody in stripes
EI remember the trees summoned down
Like an G#marchangel Bchoir
C#mAnd the ocean was all we could see
And I G#mknew that I D#mwanted you
[Chorus]
E

G#mWhen am IB gonna lose C#myou, you
G#mWhen am ID#m gonna lose
